What Audio Engine/Tool Do You Use?
Hi all, curious what people are currently using for audio solutions on their project. I actually don't know what the Microsoft group is using anymore for Xbox One titles. Anyone working on a title for them and can share that info?
Re: What Audio Engine/Tool Do You Use?
I was wondering the same thing Mike. I don't think Xact has been used by anyone for some time, although I may be wrong. A friend of mine who works does music implementation at Turn 10 says that they use FMOD for Forza. I use Wwise (when the choice is mine to make). Is Scream still supported and in use at SCEA?

Yup! Naughty Dog use it (although highly modified by an in house engineer) and so do some other dev teams.

Yep, Turn 10 and Playground Games both use FMOD on the Forza games.
We're using Wwise for development at Codemasters.
I do some simulation work for a couple of companies, most of whom have proprietary systems which we've been slowly upgrading to FMOD. I don't need the Wwise functionality and FMOD is a tad quicker to get things up and running, and easier to manage a load of different projects which all do the same thing allbeit slightly differently.
